~~~Arc 2 - Chapitre 5 - The Person of The Past~~~
Keito gruntled under his breath as he tried to get away from the crowd on a very busy district in Tokyo. He silently cursed the one who got him into this kind of trouble, that is none other than his very own Captain.
"Damn you, Yamada Ryosuke ! I'm so going to strangle you once I see you !" He muttered as he forced his way out, all the while trying to keep the box in his hands safe.
***FLASHBACK***
It was one fine afternoon when Keito was reading some new reports brought by the Twins just this prior morning. And as he sipped his steaming coffee, someone suddenly burst inside the room and trudged his way. Knowing who it was, for there's only one person who would rudely barged into his house, Keito decided to ignore the newcomer who then slammed his hands on his table. Luckily, the coffee is still in his possession so it didn't spilled and ruined the papers scattered on the table.
"What now ?"
"Keito, you've got to help me !"
Here goes the authoritive and demanding tone of his so-called Captain. Knowing that he won't see an end of it unless whatever this Captain wanted is fulfilled, Keito raised his head and stare right into the other boy's eyes.
"What may I help you, dearest Taichou-sama ?" He said calmly, but with obvious hint of sarcasm in his voice.
He watched how Ryosuke flinched at the tone he was using, and couldn't help but form a secret smirk on his face.
"You see, I saw this commercial back then and decided that I must have one of this thing. But for some reasons, Kota was not around to get me this thing. And so you're the only one who could help me get it !"
Keito really had to hold the urge to roll his eyes at the childish remark his Captain was making.
"That's why I'm asking you, what kind of help do you need ?"
Ryosuke made a smug face before pulling something from inside his coat and shoved whatever it is right in front of Keito's face.
Keito on the other hand, had to moved back to see whatever written on the paper Ryosuke just shoved. And as he read the first sentence on the paper, he facepalmed.
"Ryosuke ? How old are you really ?"
"Nineteen. Almost twenty." Ryosuke answered matter of factly.
"Right. And no nineteen -almost twenty- boy who could not buy his own cake !" Keito started to loose his temper.
"It's not like I can't buy it myself, stupid." Ryosuke made a face, looking at Keito as if he's the stupidest being on Earth. "But it's a busy district and I'm way too famous to enter the busy district myself. I mean, what if someone suddenly kidnap me and then asking for ransom ? The whole world would be in chaos."
"You're exagerrating. You've made your way to be a student in a prestigious public university without anyone suspecting you to be some heir from some random company. And you called yourself famous ? And beside, even if anyone were to kidnap you, we both knew that you're more than capable in stopping them even before they tried." Keito rolled his eyes -finally- as he turned away.
"School is an exception. I had dressed in a way to looked different than my normal self." Ryosuke retorted back.
"And you can't do it to enter this random district ?"
"I told you, that school is an exception. Do you think I would let myself being humiliated by looking like some lost nerd ?" Ryosuke raised an eyebrow.
Then something clicked inside Keito's head and before he could stop himself, he laughed.
"What's so funny ?" Ryosuke pouted as he folded his hands in front of his chest.
Keito wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes before he stood from his seat and approach the boy.
"Just admit it, Ryosuke. You asked me to do this not because of those silly reasons you gave me before. Something like you being kidnapped and all." Keito then smiled evilly. "You're just afraid of being lost in the middle of an unknown place."
Keito saw how Ryosuke widened his eyes before he turned away, positively trying to hide his embarrasment.
"S-stupid ! Of course t-that's not the case !"
"Hmm." Keito hummed as he walked back to his chair. "Fine then."
"So will you do it ?" Ryosuke turned back to face the other boy, excitement filled his eyes.
"No." Keito answered curtly, not even bothered to look at Ryosuke's groaning face as he continue reading the reports.
***END OF FLASHBACK***
"But since it's him, I just couldn't resist." Keito sighed in relief as he's finally out from the mass of crowding people who were trying to suffocate him. Taking a deep breath, he resumed his track ahead, but halted as he bumped into somebody and almost fell if not for his quick reflex, which fortunately, also saved the cake from falling.
"I'm so sorry ! I didn't see you !" The one he bumped into, that seemed to be a fine young man, turned back and apologize to him.
If it was a certain someone with a bad temper instead of Keito, he was sure to scold the other man to his heart's contents. But it's Keito, the ever gentleman of the group, he just smiled and shook his head instead.
"No, no, it's okay. I was at fault myself for not looking around properly." Keito then looked up to look at the man's face properly. And as their eyes met, Keito found himself loosing all words.
"Ah, really ? Well then, I am still sorry." The man scratched the back of his head while giving a sheepish smile. "It's just, I'm not used with the area, so, I was kinda lost, I suppose."
The man then stared at Keito worriedly as he received no response.
"Uhm, sir ? Are you alright ?" He asked carefully.
"Taichou ?"
***
"I'm back."
Ryosuke's ears perked up at the sound of his Vice coming through the front door. Smirking ever so slightly, Ryosuke almost jumped to welcome the older boy and also, to pick his order.
"Welcome back." Ryosuke said casually while eye-ing the box on the boy's hand which made his lips twitched. He then looked up, and feeling rather surprised at the fact that Keito is not alone. But what surprised him more was the one Keito brought home was not just some random people.
"Ah, Ryosuke. Here's your cake. Be thankful, okay ? I went through many troubles just for this." Keito shoved the box on his right hand toward the younger boy as he slipped into his slippers. But when he received no response, he frowned and looked up only to found the other boy looking at his other guest dumbfoundedly.
"I found this man on the street. And he seemed to be lost. So I brought him home because it's getting late and he seems to have nowhere to stay for the night." Keito explained calmly, thinking that Ryosuke was surprised to see him taking some stranger home. "He said that his name is-"
"Yuya."
Keito was surprised to hear Ryosuke called the name of the stranger before he managed to tell him. He turned his face toward Ryosuke who still looked dumbfounded, and then to the other guy who looked just as perplexed as Ryosuke is.
"Ryosuke." The man called back.
"Uhm, do you happen to know each other ?" Keito asked carefully.
Ryosuke then blinked at Keito's question and quickly shook his head. As if in a rush, he grabs his coat from the coat-hanger and put on his shoes.
"I'm sorry Keito, but I'm leaving."
And so the boy left, even forgetting the cake he was expecting, leaving the other two men on their spots.
"Ryosuke, wait !"
As his other guest is about to leave as well, Keito sighed and pull the man's hand instead.
"Leave him be. From the look of it, Ryosuke needs his time alone." Keito told the man calmly.
"But-" The man hesitated.
"I don't know what kind of relationship you two have -or had- to made Ryosuke behave that way, but trust me, chasing him out when he's like that would only worsened the situation." Keito warned the man, who then sighed and nodded his head.
"Good." Keito smiled. "Now let's get inside. I'll prepare something for you. You really looked, tired. And hungry."
The man once again nodded and followed Keito in after he changed into the indoor slippers Keito provided for him.
"Thank you, Okamoto-kun. For taking a stranger like me in like this, I am deeply grateful."
Keito took a quick glance to the man behind him before shrugging his shoulders.
"Don't mention it. You just resembles a certain someone a lot, and it made me can't leave you roaming around the city just like that." Keito replied as he went to the kitchen and put the box on his hand inside the fridge.
"I see." The man smiled as he seated himself on the couch after Keito signaled him to.
"And beside," Keito added as he picked some ingredients for dinner. "I need to hear from you about Ryosuke. Starting from who he is for you."
Even without looking at his face, Keito knew that the man was surprised at his question. But Keito just had to know.
"Of course." The man gave a low chuckle. "I haven't told you my fullname yet, have I ?"
Keito raised an eyebrow as he turned his body to face his guest.
"Then allow me to introduce myself properly." The man stood from his seat and straightened himself. "Nice to meet you. I am Yamada Yuya. The first son of the owner of the Yamada company, and also the former heir of the said company. Please be nice to me."
The man then bowed down, exactly the way Ryosuke did when he was faced with the people from the higher class.
"So you are-"
The man smiled as he nodded his head. "Yes, I am Ryosuke's older brother."
